The Balkan Line (2020– )
8/10
Impressive non-Hollywood action movie
6 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Although there was some who said there were no Russian soldiers in the airport before the arrival of the troops. There were 18 soldiers from the Russian special forces who were there under the command of Yunus Bek-Yevkurov, that also was the film's consultant. While we do not know what was their mission. The only thing we know is that there were no casualties. Either way, it's a feature movie, not a documentary. And it's one that well made. There's drama, action, thriller in part, horror and romance. I recommend it to anyone. This Russo-Serb movie is a good entertainment. I am very pleased that they did excellent linguistic work here: the Russian speaking Russian, the Serb speaking Serbian and NATO officials are speaking English. Also, while the Serb actors are fluent in Russian, they pretend to speak very little Russian, so the Russian are forced to speak to them in Serbian (there are three Russian soldiers that speaks Serbian for them). In terms of research they did very good job here, and it's really enjoyable.
